Starbound Nightly Beta Findings or Interesting Things

Your image is borked, mate!

 

You can't do that because of a technical limitation due to walking forward can bring you back to the start simulating a round planet. In order to be able to drill to another side there would have to have a limit on each end to be able to do that. Or some sort of programming that has yet to be created.

 

so its been 4 days and the nightly still hasnt updated

My guess is they're going super heavy on the dungeons that've been mentioned, so there's been no progress on anything unrelated to them. I seem to recall it being said the devs didn't want to spoil what sort of other dungeons are being done till they're ready, so, since presumably, there's been no work done on anything unrelated, there's thus been no update.

 

but isnt that the point of the nightlys ._.

 

Transportation tube through my home planet...that sounds incredibly awesome.[DOUBLEPOST=1409731031][/DOUBLEPOST]

But all the planets have a set diameter, bigger planets take longer to circumnavigate.. Aside from somehow figuring out how to flip gravity idunno if it is so impossible.

 

Perhaps, but If it was in progress, then wouldn't we not be able to see it fully anyway or something similar?

Nightly builds are an automatic download that, well, occurs nightly, this was interrupted somehow. I was of the impression that the nightly upload process would accept even an unplayable result, so this process may have been interrupted for certain reasons.

It's not totally unheard of, but clarification might be needed.

 

Oh? Let me check the system.

 

Strong Bad says: The System is down!

I actually don't play nightlies and so I have absolutely no clue about any of this. I just wanted to try and be funny =/

 

It turned out to be an issue with the older version of libc++ (for 10.7) also not supporting atomic_store and atomic_load operations (just like g++ 4.8 and 4.9). Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

 

anytime omni

 

I've been surveying the weather icons on the navigation UI, and I think I've got a full list of the weather icons compiled here. Did I miss any?

 

Dude cloud = (the ground fog weather)
And I thought acid had a downpour version?
Also, did meteors ever get that loud explosion sound before their arrival setup?

 

Right you are. I also forgot hail.

 

your missing acid storm, heavy rain and heavy acid rain
then again idk if they are in the game (i think they are)

nevermind they arnt ingame yet

 

I might be wrong, but wasn't there a different icon for giant meteor storms? (Or small ones, depending on which picture you have.)

 

nope they both use the same one

 

This is very unhelpful, as I still do not know what that symbol is.

If I wanted to find an outpost gate, how would I know which planet it was on? Because for some reason, I don't think any of the icons would be put under 'weather', and this flaming satellite, looks like it's only crashing down anyhow.

Also, are the gates really in the sky somewhere?

 

its not hard =p

thats an outpost
the planet is the outpost
or the outpost gate

 

Ah. My galaxy does not have one of those. My A.I. keeps talking about a 'gate' though, so I refer to my 2nd question. Are those teleporting gates supposedly in the sky somewhere, and if so, how am I suppose to get to it, let alone find it?!
